I think it’s a bit of both, to be honest. WILD is just not losing conciousness during the sleep stage and entering the dream. You’re doing that by not moving and focusing on something visual. So yeah, it’s WILD + Chaining. 
I think I might try it how you do it.
cool, thanks! I thought it was WILD but then I read about all the WILD experiences where theres SP and HI and crazy heart beating…
Anyway, yeah, give it a try. It seams (for me at least) that my sense of touch comes a lot easier than my sight. Just a few seconds imagining and “hey, a wall!” 
Anyway, chaining rocks.
iv still not managed to wild, but waking up after a dream and not moving gets you to fall back asleep immediately with a very clear mind. I normally find that i immediately DILD after this. I had earlier today like four lucid dreams in a row, but i didnt wild for any of them.
This topic should continue, very interesting technique. I did it last night and i think i didn’t open my eyes but i moved my body, i was sleeping on my back and it was hurting apparently, so perphaps i should sleep in a comfortable pos
This time I woke up from a nightmare, and stayed still and didn’t opened my eyes BUT couldn’t DEILD. Maybe I was too tense? Nonetheless I ‘felt’ this ‘buzzing’… 
Sounds interesting! It can be hard for me to focus on concepts, as my mind wanders a lot, so maybe working on MILD or WILD along with this would help a lot. However, I’m guessing it’ll take a lot of practice and getting used to, since it’s instinct to open my eyes and start moving. I thrash around in my sleep enough as it is. It sounds easier, though… I guess you never know until you try. I’ve done something similar when I want to fall back asleep while thinking I want to be or don’t want to be in the same dream. It has worked to take me back to the same dream before, so it’ll probably work similarly here. 
hi, ZRVera. It’s hard at first to not move when you make up. It’s a lot easier to not move after a LD, since you’re conscious and know you’re waking up. But it can alos be done after normal dreams with a bit of practice. Some autosugestion before you go to sleep can help. Welcome to the forum, btw 
I tried it, and sometimes I can manage to stay pretty still. It’s hard to remember, but I was all right if I could think about it first. (I tend to forget things a lot…) I’ll try your suggestion tonight.
Thanks for the welcome! 
Try it sleeping on ur back
Hi.
After a LD the other night was the first time I managed to keep from opening my eyes and moving (much). But then I couldn’t get back to sleep. It was also the first LD I’ve had in weeks.
I think this method deserve continued trying, though.
I stay still and don’t open my eyes but Its hard to see HI/SP
while I was having a LD, I opened my eyes and I saw my bedroom wall. I closed my eyes and fell back to sleep immediatly and actually felt myself being pushed into my dream body VERY fast. Then, BAM! I was in my dream, lucid again. This has got to be the easiest form of WILDing.
I should try this. Sounds useful, and interesting.
I think I finally successfully chained this morning. Through meditation, I entered a dream consciously. After a while the dream faded away and I became aware of physical body in bed. But I remained completely motionless, even when my body felt tingly, like there was electricity running through my body (which kind of hurt), and continued the lucid dream. I did this several time for at least an hour or two. I don’t remember exactly when I started.
When I chain I usually don’t even notice I’ve entered the dream. Maybe I lose consciousness for a few seconds, not sure. No HI or SP, I mean
From what i understand, this technique is fairly common. i’ve used it myself a number of times, but i find that if you continue to have beyond 3 or 4 lucid dreams, your memory of the first couple gets a little hazy.
For a similar technique, check out the lucidipedia channel on youtube. The guy refers to it as “dream hopping.” it’s for when a dream ends, but you’re still asleep, so you kind of walk through blank dark space for a while and repeat to yourself that you’re dreaming, and then try to imagine a surrounding. It’s worked for me before…
When i was young If I were to have a good dream and i would wake up i could “chain” my dreams together. I would just say " Im going to dream where I left off" and bygoing back to sleep I could keep going where I left off. Sorta like saving in video games. Any now I was lucid but never realized the potential. If I could learn this again I could keep my LD going even after I wake up! 
. Any one was/is able to do this?
Merged from similar topic in General Lucidness. 
This technique is known as DEILD - you can find a guide in the knowledge base.
Best of luck to you, and plenty of LD’s ^^
Yeah, I happen to have done it about 8 times this morning!! I haven’t been that good at staying long periods of time in a LD so that made me better at chaining 
What I do is I wake up and don’t move at all. I repeat to myself “The next time I dream I will remember to recognize I am dreaming” 5 times and then I’ll just try to fall back asleep. I also got to a specific place like this, I wanted to teleport a girl to safety, to the top of a hill, but I woke up while doing it. I told myself “I will get back into the dream at the top of a hill” or something like that. Anyway, for me auto-suggestion + chaining rocks! Give it a try 
I tried a few times: i woke up, stayed still with eyes closed, remembered i just had a dream, and tried telling me i would go right back to sleep, and in a few seconds i would hear a WHAM!, all my body would be instantly crossed by a paralyzing/electrical wave, but i would still be awake, and no, it wasn’t SP as i could move a minute after, while the sensation of pointy things on my skin lasted till then.
Another time i experienced HI too, and walked torwards a white light… to the same effect, feeling weird and numb but awake and able to move.
Someone can help me? Maybe i have to get back to sleep faster? (That is, not wasting teh few seconds i use into remembering the highlights of the previous dream?)
